Book 04 Numbers Chapter 025

 

025:001And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit
whoredom with the daughters of Moab.

 

025:002And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods:
and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.

 

025:003And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the
LORD was kindled against Israel.

 

025:004And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the
people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun, that
the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel.

 

025:005And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one
his men that were joined unto Baalpeor.

 

025:006And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought
unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses,
and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of
Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of
the congregation.

 

025:007And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the
priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and
took a javelin in his hand;

 

025:008And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust
both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through
her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of
Israel.

 

025:009And those that died in the plague were twenty and four
thousand.

 

025:010And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

 

025:011Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest,
hath turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, while
he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the
children of Israel in my jealousy.

 

025:012Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my covenant of peace:

 

025:013And he shall have it, and his seed after him, even the
covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was zealous
for his God, and made an atonement for the children of Israel.

 

025:014Now the name of the Israelite that was slain, even that was
slain with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu,
a prince of a chief house among the Simeonites.

 

025:015And the name of the Midianitish woman that was slain was
Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head over a people, and of
a chief house in Midian.

 

025:016And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

 

025:017Vex the Midianites, and smite them:

 

025:018For they vex you with their wiles, wherewith they have
beguiled you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of
Cozbi, the daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, which
was slain in the day of the plague for Peor's sake.
